Traditionally, a lot of the TV deals we see on Black Friday are older TV models, or low quality models. The low prices for Black Friday TV deals are often directly tied to retailers wanting to clear out old, out-dated TVs to make room for newer models. What may seem like a great deal may not actually be all that great.

That’s definitely not the case here, since the 55-inch UN55KS9000 TV from Samsung just debuted this April. It’s a new-for-2016 model that offers an edge-lit display with more dimming zones, which means better picture quality. This TV has a suggested retail price of $2,299, meaning you’ll save a little over $800. Considering this TV offers 4K picture quality and smart features, this is a solid deal for those who want to get a TV that will hold up for years to come.

2. Over $200 Off Epson Home Cinema 1040 1080p Home Theater Projector

(Epson)

An increasing number of people are opting to build their home theaters around projectors, rather than TVs. In many cases, going the projector route means you can get a larger picture area for less money than if you went for a similarly sized TV. This home theater projector from Epson is a nice entry level model. It offers full HD picture quality, tons of inputs, and a two-year warranty. This small projector can create an 80 inch picture from a distance of eight feet, or a 119-inch screen from 12 feet away. If you want a truly immersive movie experience, the mega screen size created by this projector is definitely compelling.

Want a big screen, 4K experience? This is a stellar option. Big TVs are always in demand, and it can be hard to find them at a discount for Black Friday. That being said, $500 is a solid discount off this high-end TV, though even a $500 price cut may not make it affordable for all families. If you’re looking for a big UHD TV, this relatively modest deal may be right up your alley. With a current rating of 4.4/5 stars on Amazon, it’s clear that most shoppers found this TV well worth the price.

If you were planning on buying a new TV, a $100 incentive definitely helps sweeten the pot. When you buy this curved TV, you’ll get a $100 Amazon gift card. While you can’t use the gift card to knock the TV’s price down even further at checkout, it’s still a nice perk. The gift card will arrive affixed inside a blank greeting card, with a separate mailing envelope. This makes it easy to give the gift card as a Christmas present…though we wouldn’t blame you if you wanted to keep it for yourself.

As for the TV itself, its curved screen and 4K picture quality make it ideal for watching movies in big living rooms. A 120 motion rate makes this model especially nice for those who enjoy watching live sports, or playing action-packed video games.

5. 30 Percent Off Amazon Fire TV + HD Antenna Bundle

When used together, you’re getting the best of streaming and broadcast. The AmazonBasics HD Antenna receives free over-the-air HD local broadcast content from stations like ABC, CBS, NBC, and FOX.

Just press the Up button on your Fire TV remote to view X-Ray details while a video is playing.

This deal means you’re saving $2,202.99 off the list price of this 4K TV. It’s a healthy size at 55 inches, which is a good size for most living rooms.

Are you looking for a small TV for a kid’s room or dorm room? Increasingly, people are turning towards computer monitors, rather than “real” TVs, to address their needs in small spaces. If you’re the kind of person who watches a lot of movies on your computer, this just makes sense. $130 off the normal price, this Dell monitor boasts a three year warranty. It also offers a a 178 Degree ultra wide viewing angle, with a full HD display. This is a great display for watching movies in a kids room, dorm room, or even in the kitchen.

(Sling Media)

Slingboxes are a great way to enjoy your favorite shows on your terms. Slingbox is the only way you can currently, legally watch all of your home TV programming on any device around the world. From the box, you can watch all your channels from your phone, tablet or laptop. The integrated apps on the Slingbox make TV more customizable as well. For example, you can get YouTube video recommendations based on what you’re watching, or review Rotten Tomatoes movie ratings before you start watching a new film. The Slingbox is also ideal for sports fans who don’t want to miss a game when they’re traveling.

There are bigger display sizes available for this Samsung TV model, but this size offers a solid discount, and it’s also a nice size for older members of your family. It’s a nice size for nursing home rooms, or simply as a replacement TV for elderly members of the family who aren’t obsessed with having a huge screen for movies or gaming. Despite a smaller screen size than the other TVs on our list, this model holds its own with a 4K display and smart features.
